‘Why didn’t she just ask her mum?’ Matt asked. ‘Why go to him?’
From my point of view, being a bit older than Sophie, ok ok, a lot older (but not too much!) and having things I would like to ask my Mum, but never will, you see the edge of a cliff you can’t back away from if you open your bloody trap, so you keep it close.
All joking aside, that IS how I feel about a few things I’ll never have the courage to ask her. I guess we never grow up about the fear of upsetting our parents.
